Nature is filled with amazing architects with hard-wired abilities. Even if we call ourselves more advanced but the truth is we still cannot build the things which are built by these below shown animals animals. They are Amazing Architects in nature adapted themselves to nature in there unique way. Lets take a Look.
Weaver birds Nests.
They their name because of their elaborately woven nests. Many species of weavers are highly gregarious. The nesting colonies of the Weaver are among the largest bird-created structures. These colonies may contain up to 300 chambers (one per pair) and span upto 25 feet width and 5 feet height.
Termite mound in Australia.
They were the first things that came to mind when asked this question. They grow as much as 9 meters high, and some (like this one) bear a spooky resemblance to cathedrals or Disney-fied medieval castles. Different species build distinctly different mounds.
They are elaborate nests. They often begin as tree stumps. They provide a safe shelter for the termites, and may also assist in conserving water and keeping the insects cool.
Caddisfly Larvae
Caddisfly larvae create armor to protect themselves by grabbing what ever is near by and binding around themselves using self produced silk to bind the materials together. Some artists have taken advantage of the unique way that the larvae put together their armor and the fact that they will use anything that is around them to make it. The artists will leave gold flakes, turquoise, rubies, and other gems for the larvea to use and the will create what is now known as Caddisfly jewelry.
The cocooned trees in Pakistan After the floods
These Spider Webs are really fascinating. An unexpected side-effect of the flooding in the Sindh province of Pakistan has been that millions of spiders climbed up into the trees to escape from the rising waters. Because of the scale of the flooding and the fact that the water has taken so long to recede, many trees have become cocooned in spiders webs.
Ant colonies
It is one of the most amazing thing created by very small creatures.
Ant colony is an underground lair of chambers connected to each other and the surface by tunnels. Worker ants build and maintain these colonies.
These colonies can span to many kilometers. In 2000, an enormous supercolony of Argentine ants was found in Southern Europe (report published in 2002). Of 33 ant populations nested along the 6,004-kilometre (3,731 mi) stretch along the Mediterranean and Atlantic coasts in Southern Europe, 30 belonged to one supercolony with estimated millions of nests and billions of workers, interspersed with three populations of another supercolony[Ant colony].
